    Favorite Brand of Racks?

    Hello, I'm tired of my glass enclosure not holding in humidity & heat, and am interested in racks, if you don't mind please list your favorite brand or type of racks, links, prices, or any other forms of example are encouraged! :p

    Thanks.

    Here's my experience with Boaphile. I was not a happy camper with the service as you'll see from the thread. The product is good, but service is not and I won't order from him again. I'll stick with Reptile Basics or Animal Plastics for racks and also pvccages.com for cages/enclosures.

    I've used RBI racks for a while now, and have never been disappointed with the racks or the fantastic customer service from Rich at RBI. I will use RBI racks for as long as they keep making them.

    I have 3 Animal Plastics racks and have no complaints. Quality is great, they're a snap to assemble, and priced reasonably. You have multiple heating options and 2 (two!!!) color choices. They make them for Sterilite, Rubbermaid and Iris tubs. They also have options for closed back and sides and an "economy" option where the sides and back are open.

    Love animal plastics racks, they are sturdy yet light enough to be shipped Fedex which also mean light enough for me to carry the boxes upstairs in the snake room, and they are very easily put together.

    They also fit your need from as little as 3 shelves to 13 for some of their racks.

    Additionally great price and great customer service.

    I have 8 of them and I am slowly upgrading my homemade racks to animal plastics.

    Reptile Basics. Rich is awesome and really really truly awesome to work with. He's been so patient and pleasant. I have one rack from him and have just purchased two more that I'll be picking up from him in July.

    I've had many different brands of racks including home made, Freedom breeder, vision, boaphile, Monster-cages.com and Animal plastics. For my money, animal plastics is my favorite
